JANUARY 1st
( Luciano Somma ITA - PRIMO GENNAIO - Trad. Pamela Allegretto Franz )

 

 Still dazed
 from so much racket
 the night yawns
 as it's already tomorrow.  
   
 Will it have a new face  
 this sunrise that awakens
 newborn hope
 for a peaceful year?

 There on the horizon     
 I see a light
 powerful and radiant      
 Will it be a fraud?

 Only illusion?
 If not, this greeting
 is a pure manifestation
 for everyone on earth
   
 to love each other      
 life is unique
 we hold it dear
 living in love
   
 with all races
 from true brothers
 will it be utopia?
 It's possible, I wonder!
